New Blanket Pattern

Two of my most favorite things are yarn and fabric! I absolutely fell in love with this fabric when I spied it in Joann Fabrics. Soft, minky love and very Cath Kidston to me. She is a popular gal in the United Kingdom and is all things feminine and flowery.

It's a super simple crocheted blanket with fabric on one side. I've received many emails over the years to design one that can be put together with a sewing machine. The original pattern is far too bulky to handle that so you must hand sew the fabric on. Actually, I don't mind hand sewing but I totally get those that cringe at the idea.

Your wish is granted! A simple crochet stitch, flowers, leaves and pom pom trim all
crocheted and put together with minky fabric. Easy peasy to run through your machine.

I attached the pom pom trim and flowers to the yarn side to add interest, but you could add it to the fabric side if you like it that way.

Lovely flowers and leaves add a whimsy, 3D effect to the fabric side. Really easy patterns and I've given you a video link for the pom pom trim. Lots of up close photos too.

As with all my patterns, I'm always available to help you along the way.

That is beautiful! But, I am seriously at a loss as to how you sew this together! I would be so scared to snag something...of course my knitting is good on its own and same with sewing, but putting the two together - definitely scary!
